Preparation material
Material for the roleplay case on Voice recognition and Parkinson's
Take the following steps to prepare before the roleplay:
- Study the case and role card for your role and get into your role by visualising your character. Use the following questions: What kind of person is he/she? What does he/she want to achieve? Who asked him/her to join?
- Study the questions on the role card and check which key concept cards are relevant for your role.
- Keep in mind that the aim of the roleplay is to work together on privacy by design. So, think how you can contribute in a constructive way.

Recommended: To understand the background and the setting better, please prepare your participation by looking at the e-learning material on ‘privacy in research’. You can access it via the
Future Learn platform using this link.
This is high quality material that was developed at the UG to inform the users about essential
questions relating to privacy in research. Remember it also when you develop your projects later.
